Ok, chaos never really left but I lost track of the score a long time ago and Chaos Returns sounded pretty catchy...
It all started on a semi-sunny afternoon, or at least sunny enough for Cassidy to get outside and get some energy out while I worked in the kitchen with the twins. As I checked on her I noticed her dragging poor Echo around by the collar so I asked if she would like a leash for Echo (Sorry Echo. Thanks for taking one for the team...again). YEAH came the reply, so we hooked it up and off she went and I went back to getting ready to start dinner amazingly pretty close to on-time. The next time I looked out Cass had the leash on Mossy...uh-oh, not a good idea as Mossy is a little more ummm exuberant then Echo. Just as I was headed out to tell her to put the leash back on Echo (after making sure the girls were ok in their bumbo seats on the counter and had a few toys to chew on) I hear "MOSSY NO!" and then definite crying. I come around the corner to see Cass face down in the grass and Mossy running after a ball dragging the leash....After calming Cass down, making sure there was no blood, explaining why Mossy wasn't a good idea and switching the leash back to Echo I headed back inside to my twins content and just as I had left them....oh no wait, that's in a different house. My girls managed to knock over my ever present water bottle which I had just filled but forgot to cap. There was water everywhere and running down the cabinets. The best part though was that both girls had twisted just enough in their seats to get one foot into the water and were splashing away and yes, perfectly content and soaked. After getting the water cleaned up and the girls crying because they were no longer splashing and had to get changed, in comes Cass, holding the leash and crying saying "Echo won't let me catch her and neither will Mossy". So much for that idea and now it's well after 6:00 and we should be eating dinner and the twins should be down for a nap but that must be in that other house too....In our house I'm wondering how long that meat will stay in the fridge that I was going to make tonight that I was originally going to make 2 nights ago and if Cassidy would like scrambled eggs again and which girl might be content in the swing and which might be ok in the bouncy thing and if any really needed baths tonight because after all there is always tomorrow....
